Does anyone in #Philly have a #radioactive source that produces X-ray/gamma or beta #radiation, or know where I can visit / borrow one?
I bought a geiger counter alternative on Kickstarter, and I have no idea if it works. I could buy radioactive test material, but then I would be intentionally creating the situation I am trying to avoid: radiation in my house.
So I want to find a gamma or beta radiation source not in my house, to test my radiation detector, but I don't want to keep it.
I've lived in the #Philly area off and on since 2002, and I just don't remember the weather looking like this, constant thunderstorms. Is my memory failing me? Did I not notice in the past, because I was a computer nerd shut-in? Or does Philly have a monsoon season now, where it didn't before?
🎧 The epic remix of #MFSB's "Love is The Message" you maybe didn't know existed.
The original recording won the 1974 Grammy for "Best R&B Instrumental Performance." In 2021, John Morales created the "Philly Long Message Street Strutin' Mix" (15:20).
Ok #Philly, I need a list of restaurants that still have #OutdoorSeating this winter. (Real outdoor seating, not sheds or tents that are fully enclosed.) Is there any way to search for this, or generate a list?
In this case I also need:
open for lunch (wow all my favorite restaurants are dinner only)
vegetarian food
that accommodates my peanut and soy allergies
not spicy
Italian cuisine with homemade pasta is my favorite, but I also like Zahav and Vedge, for instance
Friend and I have a game where we send each other pictures of food items we see on the ground. I'd been kicking her ass for years and now she's in #Philly for the weekend and completely blown me out of the water #jawns
@philly2600 - I'm a sorry hacker, but if I were cool I'd attend. I used to use 2600 in my screen name to be l33t
@chip - #PHL via SFO, member of funky jam band that I just listened to; maybe grab their album today for #BandcampFriday or attend their gig at Milkboy tomorrow night: https://stackabones.com/

Why were most of the cyclists in this photo wearing masks in November 1977? Was it to avoid breathing polluted air?
If so, thank goodness we have the EPA now; I hope we can address modern threats to air quality, like climate change related wildfires, rather than giving up and letting the air become difficult to breathe again.
Trying to use Twitter/X to do something simple like see how bad the roads and sidewalks are in #Philly is now entirely impossible. Every common term is coopted by a crypto spammer, search is useless.
Hey, if anyone in #Philly wants a white Fully standing desk converter in good condition, hit me up. Glad to give it away for free to someone who needs it. #freecycle
4 months ago today I arrived in San Francisco. I’ve had a great time, made lots of new friends, but I’m on to my next thing. Tomorrow morning I’m leaving SF to begin a 10 day roadtrip to Philly. On Jan 22 I’ll start a new job working for the Biden For President campaign. I’m excited to work somewhere that’ll be fulfilling, and allow me to take pride in what I’m doing (unlike the job I had for 4 months in SF).
I bet Weird Fucking Storm Philly Mastodon would be as lit as San Francisco Earthquake Twitter was if there was only a way to find the posts across instances
Hello #Philadelphia natives! I am attending a work meeting in #Philly next week, and I've been tasked with finding a mid-range, quirky venue for a team dinner (~12 people). Requirements:
Outdoor space with heaters (we have #CovidCautious people we want to accommodate)
Both food and (alcoholic) drink
Options for vegetarians
Near the Liberty Bell (our meeting site is near there) if possible
Any recommendations?
Please boost! Thanks. :boostRequest:
I just don't want to hear them ever again. We don't have to discuss the environmental costs if we can band together simply to eliminate a really annoying noise.
Was that a couple F-16s flying over #Philly with afterburners on? I assume this has something to do with sports, and that they're not in a hurry to intercept a threat. Way too low and loud for my tastes.
